Derek, it's their job. should I be grateful that you do your job?

If they weren't doing that (their job), they'd be playing basketball, lifting weights, playing HALO video game, or out checking out the Danville hotties, wasting diesel in the ladder truck (what? no multi-story buildings in Danville??).

Give it a rest already. Next thing you'll say is that they're heroes, right?

Sponge Bob,

I always thank people for doing a good job. The waitress, the guy at the car wash, the guy who made my pizza. You don't sound like a very nice person. When people do a good job - even if it is their job - it's polite to say "thank you" or "good job." What made you so hateful?

Good to hear no damage was done - hopefully people don't go wild with setting off their own fireworks over the holiday and accidentally start more fires, especially with San Ramon not having a show this year.

Tell you what Sponge Bob Wet Pants, next time you insert yourself into some flaming brush I'll say "thanks" and send you a bottle of your fave whiskey.
I don't know about you, but my job doesn't save anyone's home, property, or life.
